    Warhammer 40k: Chaos Gate

    I watched some of this on Twitch and it looks like there are some interesting concepts wrapped in my favorite setting; please tell me it is good enough to buy.

    What you are looking for is the Boglehead 3 Fund Portfolio. My personal take (and I would wait for @Blazin or @Sanrith Descartes to shit on it) is that 60/20/20 is not as good as it was 20 years ago because a few decades of near 0 interest rates have made bond funds less important and a the...

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Do you know how I know that Hollywood is not a meritocracy? Because the same group of 10 or so fucking idiots are allowed to ruin beloved franchises and lose BILLIONS with a B in revenue with their shitty ideas and the studio heads just keep on hiring them.

    I was only a few years into my career in the 08 recession and I remember being VERY happy with my gains the next few years since my 401k was dollar cost averaging my portfolio every 2 weeks.

    Fair point, I totally forgot about that because I have not played the game in many years...... because I think it sucks.

    When I saw her I immediately thought "I wonder if you get to customize your character" since that seems to be the only character that was changed and we all know why. That criticism immediately fled my mind when I saw that the game looked like it was from 10 years ago and they are porting it...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Now that we are the Elden Lord, I would like a DLC that delves into ages past and if there were different Elden Rings. A DLC that deals mostly with the Outer Gods would also be great.

    Marika is gone in every iteration of the ending; I do not think we will be seeing her as a living character in any DLC unless we travel into the past a la Dark Souls 1.

    Oh yea, and his 4th attack on the sword/board combo becomes a massive AOE tail swipe. It must be dodged unless you are more than half a screen away.

    Crucible knights are honestly all about learning the move set. He has the sword/shield four slash combination that you can hit after the fourth slash, he has sword/shield lunge that he uses when you are out of range and trying to heal (when you get out of range don't try to heal immediately...

    It's crazy; in Oklahoma my wife and I started by managing our first two properties ourselves. These were 3/1 @ 1000 sqft and in a middling part of the town. We had a deadbeat tenet in the second year that we were able to evict simply by looking up and following the 5 steps online. It was...

    This right here is how we get back to a true 2008 housing crisis bubble. I don't care for 2 reasons: 1.) In 2006 and 2007 people were getting banks to finance investment properties at 100% LTV as long as they had a good repayment history. 2.) Even if you don't have the investment P&L's to...

    Destructive tenants almost do not exist once you get into middle class renters. If they value their jobs or credit scores a huge unpaid damages bill that either goes to small claims court or put on their credit report is akin to financial suicide. If you are really scared then only rent to a...

    It has to be a multiverse thing because the only other person worthy of the hammer was Cap and Jane's character has never focused on how upright and moral she is. That, or she scienced a way to reforge the hammer and pick it up.

    Yeah, we certainly wouldn't want things such as "do unto others as you would have them do unto you," "turn the other cheek," ""judge not lest ye be judged," and "forgive your brother his trespasses seventy times seven" seeping into our perfect culture.

    It's Taika Waititi, you know it is going to be more on the funny/lighthearted side than anything else. He will sprinkle in some subtly heavy character moments and then it will be back to funny. It's going to feel like a sequel to Ragnarok and that isn't a bad thing. Don't expect this to break...

    You're not wrong. His nose, voice, and demeanor are all exactly like Adam Driver. It sucks that this got canceled. The first few episodes of this were as creepy and disturbing as I've ever seen on TV.

    Yeah, this is what a high school around me is going to look like. There are a ton of first/second generation kids in the AA and Asian categories. The "economically disadvantaged" kids must come from apartment complexes since there are no economically challenged neighborhoods in this school's zone.

    Well you're not going to like Houston compared to FL because there is no good coast line like Gold or Space Coast. You could look at Galveston but it is definitely not the same. Houston is a huge commuter city that is the most racially diverse city in the United States but also home to the old...

    Look at this Dallas snob. The second you get outside of Houston proper the county is purple and every mile out you go from there it gets more red. @Sanrith Descartes you would probably want to look at The Woodlands or Cinco Ranch (Katy) as your destinations. Both are nice but it really comes...

    Then the North Texas burbs are not a place to look at a starter house. At those prices it would be more attractive to switch jobs, make less, and move to a new city/state but pay less in housing than to bite the bullet and overpay for a house that comes with problems (and all 20 year old houses...

    It is hard to blame @Tmac for not saving aggressively during those years unless he comes back and tells us that his parents and family hounded him to do it and he ignored them. I say this coming from a lower-middle class (half the time upper-lower class) family/neighborhood where exactly 0 of...

    If the developer was smart they were talking with the city/county to see what sort of changes they could get made to the schools to attract more buyers. It is a weird chicken-egg scenario as the more people buy in that attractive part the better the school will get as more active parents get...

    Maybe all of this will have people rethinking that they need 4000 square feet for a family of 3. A 'starter house' should be 2 or 3 bed and 2 baths at the most but there are none of those being built anymore. The current idea of a starter house being 4 bed 3 bath and an extra room...

    It is because they are mostly a company of mediocre (at best) individuals and that level of talent cannot develop or balance something as complex as a skill tree.
